The "Good" Dalek Could Have Been Much More Terrifying in DOCTOR WHO Storyboards by James Iles

This weekend aired the second episode of Doctor Who season 8 titled "Into the Dalek." The numbers are strong and Den of Geek called
it "one of the most downright enjoyable episodes of Who in the past
year or two."
The visuals are a big part of the episode and one storyboard artist
that helped director Ben Wheatley visualize the episode is James Iles. He sent me some storyboards from one of the most powerful scenes in the episode when they enter the terrifying world of the Dalek's interior. The episode is great and the special effects are some of the best in years, but the storyboards show a slightly more horrifying look for the Dalek and the "antibodies."

Iles is a UK based professional storyboard and concept artist who's worked on
big budget projects like Doctor Who, The Amityville Asylum (2013) and Outcasts (2011).

What is Film Sketchr?

This blog is about the often unseen world of concept design and storyboarding in science-fiction films and television. These artists work to bring the vision of the writer and director to life. My hope is you'll learn a little bit more about them. If you're an artist I hope you find inspiration from the talented artists featured.
